Republic's Nowicki reporting on-site at political conventions

National political reporter Dan Nowicki will be reporting from Tampa this week, covering the Republican National Convention for The Arizona Republic, 12 News and azcentral Politics.

Look for his reports about Arizona's 29-member delegation, which includes Gov. Jan Brewer, Secretary of State Ken Bennett, Treasurer Doug Ducey and state House Speaker Andy Tobin.

He'll also cover U.S. Sen. John McCain's speech -- the sixth consecutive time Arizona's senior senator has spoken at a national political convention since 1988 -- and the acceptance speeches from Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney, the vice-presidential and presidential nominees, respectively.

Next week, he'll be in Charlotte, N.C., covering the Democratic National Convention.
